Abstract

A transmission power adjustment value acquisition unit references a transmission power/adjustment value table to output a transmission power adjustment value for transmission power. A transmission frequency correction value acquisition unit references a transmission frequency/correction value table to output a transmission power correction value, from a center frequency of the position of an RB that is sent from a used transmission frequency calculation unit and that will actually be used. An adjustment value addition unit adds the adjustment value for the obtained transmission power and the transmission power correction value for the center value of the position of the RB that will actually be used, and calculates the transmission power setting. Since the transmission power correction value is obtained from the center frequency of the position of the RB actually transmitted, misalignment between the transmission power setting and the actual transmission power is reduced.
